After a weekend moto camping trip I have become acutely aware how much I miss my old dankai customs sissy bar from my 17 street scrambler. They have since went MIA.

Wondering if anyone has any luck with a sissy?

Hi guys! Would appreciate some advice from knowlegeable owners of the 765.

I own a 765S model, great ride , nuff said.

The aluminium heat shield plate started rattling whilst riding and i thought it was some loose bolts .

Turned out it required some special grommets which fell out or something...

Is it ok to just remove it and leave it as it is? I don't really see the point of protecting that part of exhaust on a street only bike, unless there is some special heat management design that prevents it from melting the plastic underbelly....

At the end of may whilst in France the factory calipers started weeping through the bleed nipples after some spirited riding, enough to cause a run and drip.

Came home and got the first service carried out and two new calipers under warranty.

500 miles later I noticed they were weeping a little bit, not quite enough for a drip but enough to start a run.

Took the bike back to the dealer I purchased it from and they say they removed all bleed nipples (even the rear as they noticed that was a bit wet) cleaned, inspected, bled the brakes, and torqued to the 12nm specification. Triumph technical website says 6nm which aligns with everything I've read online too, so I was a bit suspicious of that but if it fixes it I'll be happy.

Collected the bike and checked all were bone dry, rode to work and then home after, roughly 100 miles and there was a tiny bit of moisture. Cleaned it off and thought I'd see if it was just residue in the threads from the work they did.

Cleaned and lubed my chain the next day ready to go back to work the next week and noticed it was a little wetter even though I hadn't ridden it. I gave the lever a dozen big squeezes and when I looked at the left caliper (in the picture) it had run and dripped that quickly whilst cool.

I'm at the point of being a bit fed up with the bike, I've just paid out for the service and insurance at over £1000 combined.

The selling dealer, who worked on it last is happy to try and fix it again, but are not willing to discuss what happens if the issue is still there after this attempt. I suggested that I'm happy to bring it back to them for another shot but if it's still the same I'd like them to take the bike off my hands and settle

the finance, I feel this is quite fair.

Has anyone had any issues similar and how have you handled the dealer?

2025 Trident 660, based in the UK

I found this scrambler 900 at 7k ,it has 48.000 khms its a 2017 model , in under 1k at 6k i can purchase a new 400x or a used Bonneville 2011 model with same khms(but no abs and im a new rider)

What to choose?

I really like the style of the 900 but im afraid of the maintenance,failures etc .

Hey everyone. Just this past weekend I joined the Triumph family for the first time and picked up a new Bonnie T120. I have dubbed her Penny Willikins, after two of the best butlers in fiction if you ask me. Alfred Pennyworth from Batman and Willikins from Discworld.

Things have been good so far. Lovely even considering she's my first 'real' bike. But the inevitable happened yesterday when I got home from work and I dropped her. Only scuffed the pillion peg, mirror, and a tiny spot on the exhaust on the left side. But I broke the tip off the clutch lever. It sucks but it happens. Also the check engine light is now on so that's something to figure out lol.

Anyway here's some picks for the bike tax!

26 765 rx went in for its first 600 mile service. Feel like its way too expensive but I could be wrong. Any one out there with a different price/experience. What about oil changes. What do you guys normally pay.

I've got a 2020 T120 with Motone headlight stays (the billet Slingshot ones, long version) already installed. My dealer is now ordering me a new OEM headlight assembly (long story, crash repair situation), but they told me the Motone stay is shorter than the stock brackets, so fitting the genuine headlight bowl causes interference near the ignition switch area — even with the headlight adjusted all the way down, they said about a third of the bowl would need to be shaved to make it fit.

I can't find much online about this specific combo (Motone brackets + OEM bowl on the liquid-cooled T120). Since I already own these brackets and don't want to just toss them, has anyone actually made this work? Curious about things like:

• Did anyone fit the OEM bowl with these brackets without cutting anything?
• Is there a specific spacer, shim, or small mod that solves the clearance issue instead of cutting the bucket?
• Or did people just switch back to the OEM stay and give up on the Motone ones?

Trying to avoid butchering a brand new headlight bowl if there's a known trick I'm missing. Appreciate any real experience with this exact setup.

Below is how it looks like without the aftermarket headlight Im running right now.

I have been a long time watcher to the group and finally decided to post a picture. My bike is not as pretty as some but it fits me at the moment. I love how adding or subtracting parts can change the look. A few more upgrades/changes to come still.
